Adjust Fees and Fines

Prev Next

Important Note:

Changes to fee or fine records can directly impact related invoices and payments. Editing amounts or dates may alter balances, payment records, and reports. Be especially careful when updating the date a fee or fine was entered. The fee or fine date should never be later than the date of a payment linked to it. Doing so can cause payment records to display incorrectly and lead to reporting issues.
